Chapter 109 Relationship Crisis +5 Free Colins

It was around eleven o'clock when Zachary finally made it home. They sat down for lunch together in the house, eating in silence, both seemingly lost in their thoughts.

Shortly after, the driver arrived and took them to the airport. Their secretaries were already there, waiting for them. On this trip, Zachary had brought along four secretaries. Apart from Miles, the other three had no idea about the nature of Lenora's relationship with Zachary,

Maybe someone had hinted at it, though, because when they greeted Lenora, there wasn't even a flicker of surprise on their faces. Their demeanor was calm and professional, treating her like any other colleague on a business trip. Once they had checked in, the group made their way to the VIP lounge to wait for their flight. Zachary immediately settled down on one of the plush couches, and a staff member promptly brought him a cup

of coffee.

Lenora, however, chose a seat facing the large floor-to-ceiling windows, where she could watch several planes parked outside. It was an oddly calming sight.

She glanced over at Zachary, who was already engrossed in a finance magazine. Around them, other passengers passed the time quietly-some reading, others working on their phones. The entire lounge had a serene, almost soothing atmosphere. Suddenly, Lenora's phone vibrated. She quickly picked it up, only to catch Zachary's glance. Offering him, an awkward smile, she hurriedly switched the phone to silent mode.

It was a message from Jonas on WhatsApp: Do you have any plans for the holiday?

Lenora: Yeah, I'm at the airport right now.

Jonas: Where are you going?

Lenora: Navarre.

Jonas: How long are you staying?

Lenora: About a week.

Jonas: Man, I'm jealous! We only get a three-day break, and I've got to head right back to filming. Couldn't even relat during the break-had to attend promotional events the whole time.

Lenora: Wow, you really had it rough.

They chatted for a bit, with Jonas eventually asking: How's it going with your boyfriend? Last time, you mentioned things were shaky.

Lenora glanced up at Zachary before typing back: We're okay, I guess. We haven't broken up yet, but I'm still figuring things out.

Just then, a shadow loomed over Zachary. "Mr. Fuller! What a coincidence, where are you off to?" a voice

called out.
